    Harold johnson, Baker, Archie, could out speed him and play it safe. Especially a prime Johnson against Foreman.

    Can you understand the difference between a middleweight/ lightheavyweight and a heavyweight. Old Foreman and ruddock would knock out archie moore

    Moore was past his prime against Floyd and Patterson was far quicker and faster than Morrison.

    Prime Archie weighed 185 lbs against huge punchers like Baker and Valdes. It would be another day in office for Old Mongoose:

    You are inventing your imaginary prime version of moore ,he fought better opossition at that time but it will not change the fact he was past his prime. Like i said, archie moore at 28 years old In his prime was a middleweight and he was a lhw in his 30s. Morrison destroys archie moore.
    Valdez and baker huge punchers? Lmao stop it please.

    Oddly Baker and Valdez have a lot more ranked wins against opposition then Tommy. They didn’t hit as hard as him but that really doesn’t mean much if you’re not thag good a boxer with a bad chin.
    Ps any child can look at Archies record and see his best streak. Which would be his “prime”. He also had more heavy weight fights then Tommy which kind
    Of destroys your argument.

    Well I'd want Archie to win but I think Morrison would. After watching the ESPN documentary about him and reading his book, I have zero respect for Morrison. I felt sorry when Lennox beat him up, now when I watch it I'm glad as well as the Bennt, Mercer, and Puritty fights.

    The Foreman Morrison beat was better than ANY heavyweight Moore beat. Ruddock was still dangerous and went 12 rounds with Tyson.

    But you did mention some interesting names. Patterson who had speed and power, but not size and like Morrison had a shaky chin blew Archie Moore out in 3 rounds. Okay, what happens when Morrison lands? It would be over quickly. Patterson is 30+ pounds lighter than Morrison was.

    You get no extra points for fighting w aids lol. He was also roided up beyond belief. I love old Foreman and his win over Moorer is my top two favorite win for anyone. But let’s face it he wasn’t the toughest out ever. I think a lot of fast slick boxers beat him.

    Yeah that's really something to be proud of fighting a blood sport with the AIDS virus, what the hell is wrong with you? He could have transmitted that to his opponents that's why the white trash boy from Oklahoma was banned from boxing.

    His only credible win was against Foreman and he ran like a rabbit all night. I thought the fight was a draw.

    Wouldn't you agree that Foreman in the early 1990's was better than any heavyweight Moore beat. Archie didn't have the size or chin. Mike Moorer was a goof boxer with speed. He took the count vs Foreman.

    This match is a light heavyweight, who didn't have the best durability in the world, vs. one go the hardest punchers at heavyweight of all time.

    Moore was up and down like a yo-yo vs Yvon Durelle. Durelle was a medium level punching light heavyweight. Watch that fight, and tell me if you think he's last vs Morrison.

    Moore would need to catch Morrison early and avoid his quick hands and power, or wait for him to gas to win.
